Ongoing activities
Repair Cafe
Last Saturday of each month (excluding December), 10am-12pm
Oregon Hall, Quercus Beechworth, Corner of Ford & Church Street
The Quercus Beechworth Repair Café is the place to visit to repair your items and learn a new skill. Our volunteer repairers are here to inspire and advise as well as repair. Or you can just visit for a cuppa and chat; it’s a great place to meet new people.
New volunteer repairers are always welcome. You can volunteer monthly, or offer a one-off service for a specialist skill. We also welcome volunteers to assist in welcoming visitors and setting up morning tea – no repair skill required!
The Repair Café greatly appreciates the donation of tools and equipment from the former Beechworth Women’s Shed.

Circle
Second Friday of each month,
7-9pm Conscious Dance

Conscious Dance
Enjoy the experience of a closed-eye ‘conscious dance’, where you get to move your body to specially selected music to lift your energy. No special dance moves are needed, just a willingness to let go and tune into the music as it takes you on an inner journey. A great way to shake off the everyday, to relax and unwind and leave feeling topped up and energised.

Supporting community events
We value Community, Fun, and Inclusion. Our purpose is to facilitate community participation and social inclusion in ways that strengthen local spirit and pride.
In action, this means we WANT to work with YOU! Quercus Beechworth can support you to make your community organisation event stronger, more vibrant, and more inclusive. We want to hear from you.
The Quercus Beechworth “Chill Out Zone” is an inclusive, welcoming space that can be set up at any community activity. We provide a sensory-friendly, free place for people to gather when they need a break from the action of the event to reset and recharge.
If you would like to discuss how Quercus Beechworth can support your event, please email us.
